Chris Sale very much in Cy race w/ Price, Verlander and current front runner Weaver..Verlander has numbers which get lots of attention/votes

No team in baseball needs a 4-5 game winning streak more than the Sox (well except Detroit, but as previously established f*** Them)

The Houston Astros disagree

The Astros would probably settle for a 2 game streak at this point

They actually won two in a row vs. Milwaukee this past weekend. However, that was preceded by a stretch of 4-34 baseball. Yowza.

Which makes it even more amazing that Lucas Harrell has a winning record for them (9-8).

Would need a collapse by Weaver and a semi-collapse from Verlander imo.

I don't understand how that makes any sense.

So is it time to admit that regularly pushing Peavy past 75 pitches last year is paying dividends this year, just like Cooper said it would?

 

Christopher Kamka ‏@ckamka

 

Peavy by pitch count: Pitch 1-75: .228... Pitch 76+ .226. Last season: .247/.320. What a difference.

The White Sox have agreed to terms with Victor Done, a 16-year-old righthander from the Dominican Republic.

 

Done is 6-foot-3, 190 pounds with a solid delivery for his age and a fastball that has reached 91 mph. He has flashed a sharp 74-78 mph curveball that's ahead of his changeup right now. Done is from Villa Mella and trained with Tomas Giron.

 

The White Sox have significantly increased their international presence over the last year. Since July 2, they have also landed Dominican corner outfielder Hanlet Otano, Dominican shortstop Johan Cruz and Dominican third baseman Luis Castillo.

Don Cooper anyone? White Sox lead MLB with 859 quality starts since start of 2003. Angels have 856. In 2012, Angels have 66, Sox 65.

#WhiteSox 6th in #MLB in '12 w/ 43.4% of runs scoring on HRs. Of late, figure has soared to 61%. Hence lineup change.

Kinda like 2005-2006.

 

I did not know this but found out listening to the Toronto broadcast that the Sox have 5 guys hitting over .300 with RISP.

 

Why do the white sox wear black socks with their uniform instead of white socks?

...None of whom have played an inning for our DSL team, not one inning.

Which MLB team wears white socks?

preferably the team thats named the white sox i would guess.

Those guys are already Sox products though on the DSL Team, so these new signee wouldn't have been on the team beforehand.

And that includes a year and a half of Danny Wright

6 foot 5 240 pound Daniel Black hit a grand slam on Wednesday & drove in 6 runs. The switch hitting prospect is batting .317 this season in 433 ABs with 16 homers & 75 RBIs.

 

Where did this 20 year old 2B prospect Yolmer Carlos Sanchez come from? Down in AA he is batting .370 in 100 ABs. He is also a switch hitter.

 

I also didn't realize Courtney Hawkins was called up to Kannapolis a couple games ago.
